A Visit with Porter

Driving into work today I popped over to XMX, channel 2, and heard part of Bill Anderson Visits with The Legends -- the Porter Waggoner episode. I *always* learn something from listening to Bill's show, and today was no exception. It was a great conversation with Porter from everything to Dolly to Opryland closing down, including his favorite "girl singer" -- Trisha Yearwood. It was also great to hear some of his early music when he had such a strong, young voice.

Check it out. To quote the promo "It will change the way you listen to the music."

At one of her concerts in September, she told was talking about the Opry and how they usually get to sing two songs and she always plans on singing her newest song and one other song. Then she sees Porter before her performance and he says "are ya gonna sing the one that brought you here", so she always sings SILWTB for Porter.
